Now you need to shell out the extra $119.99 to be able to activate the Windows 10 Home Edition, not doing this renders your Mi Notebook Air useless unless you install Linux which is a free OS.


You can stil continue to use your Mi Notebook Air at the moment but there are many restrictions, so my best advice is to activate it. There might be an upgrade program from Home Single Language to Home, try to inquire with Microsoft for it. Or you can buy the Home Single Language English to make it cheaper on the pocket.


Next is to install all the drivers that you have downloaded including the Mi Tong Bu App.


Last step is how to let the Mi Logo Appear again belows the Windows 10 Icon.


Download the OEM Configurator from my attachment.
